Rhodes Ranch is in the southwest part of Las Vegas and is a gated golf course community. It's one of the nicer communities in the area and is sought after by many. You can probably compare it to many of the communities that are located in Summerlin as well with nice, new houses that are definitely affordable (since the housing crash). There are still new houses that are being built (by Dunhill Homes). The HOA fees are definitely reasonable for what you get - gated community, work out facility, pool - including resort pool, lap pool and water park. Definitely a community you should consider if you are looking to buy/rent in the area.
